The irony of leaving this comment under my post, which was bringing attention to how women who game and share that get torn down.

I just don't understand what people gain from this nonsense?

100% featuring this shit-head in an article on this.

I don't typically get frustrated, but the comments on #Lemmy when I shared my last interview with GameNative were just...maybe a bridge too far

https://lemmy.world/post/45969067

From GameNative being just like Stadia (?) to "๐˜๐˜ถ๐˜ค๐˜ฌ ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ๐˜ณ๐˜ฐ๐˜ช๐˜ฅ, ๐˜ญ๐˜ข๐˜ด๐˜ต ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜จ ๐˜ ๐˜ธ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ต ๐˜ช๐˜ด ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ญ๐˜ฐ๐˜ค๐˜ฌ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ฅ๐˜ฐ๐˜ธ๐˜ฏ ๐˜ฅ๐˜ฆ๐˜ท๐˜ช๐˜ค๐˜ฆ๐˜ด ๐˜ฃ๐˜ญ๐˜ฐ๐˜ข๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ง๐˜ช๐˜ญ๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ธ๐˜ช๐˜ต๐˜ฉ ๐˜ด๐˜ฑ๐˜บ๐˜ธ๐˜ข๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ."

From someone telling me my article's title is a "conflict of interest" (then refusing to reply telling me how it is), to the title being clickbait

Am I crazy, or is this insane?

My latest article covers the lead developer of a program which lets you play your #Steam #GOG and #EpicGames titles on your #Android phones and retro handhelds. GameNative.

There's some healthy skepticism about whether this tech ๐˜ช๐˜ด the futute of handheld #gaming, but I think this interview covers a bit of that:

If anyone here enjoys #RetroGaming and wishes they had every guide written and shared on/by GameFAQs, you can download every single one of them (๐˜ถ๐˜ฑ ๐˜ต๐˜ฐ ๐˜ข ๐˜ค๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ต๐˜ข๐˜ช๐˜ฏ ๐˜ฑ๐˜ฐ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜ต) with this #archiveorg link:

If you missed the news, you can get Planet Coaster for free right now. You'll get a #Steam key from Digiphile and the DLC is also on sale right now too.

Which I think is a nice way to encourage sales, and not one I've seen before (by memory) in #gaming

And, even if you already own it you can claim it and trade it back for 30 'credits' on Digiphile (or so I've read)

If you're a fan of slightly older #gaming or of #DOOM in particular then you've seen this picture.

John Romero and John Carmac posing in front of their Ferraris they were so well known for!

If you've not read it, Masters of Doom is an AMAZING book that covers their history making DOOM, as well

Here's an interesting #RetroGaming fact for you

There are more than 30 horse racing games which were released for the #SNES and not one of them was released outside of Japan!
